GCSE and A Level Examination Results

At Loretto, we understand the importance of academic achievement and are extremely proud of our students’ exam results. Each year, cohorts achieve outstanding grades – a reflection of their ambition and dedication to their studies, as well as the fantastic support offered by staff at school. Comparably higher than the national average, the quality of our exam results solidifies Loretto’s status as one of the UK’s leading independent schools.

Over the years, GCSE results have been consistently exceptional. The academic year 2024-25 saw Lorettonians uphold the stellar standards set in the years prior. Our results in Maths and English were markedly higher in comparison to the national average. Students excelled in French, Spanish, Geography, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Computing too, with 89% of grades being within the 9-4 boundary (A*-C), and over one quarter being graded 9-7 (A*-A).

You may notice that some exam years have been removed from our table, this is because the grades were impacted by covid and all schools’ grades were inflated across the UK. What we show are the non-covid effected results and our consistency.
